I was able to hook up with the crew at the LA Poker Classic at Commerce. Felicia and Glenn, HDouble, Grubby, StudioGlyphic (our organizer, Phil), Mr. and Mrs. Can’t Hang, FHWRDH, Absinthe, Obituarium, and many more (please don’t hate me if I forgot to list you. I’m blaming it on the Jack Daniels). Even the Poker Prof and FlipChipPro made a brief appearance and rooted on their new blogging partner, poker pro extrodinare, Max Pescatori, before jetting back to Sin City.
A summary of my play:
I played some solid NL poker and was up about 4 buy ins. I got drunk. I ended up breaking even.
Let that be a lesson boys and girls.
It’s always interesting when you get the poker bloggers together. In talking to Felicia, I was informed that my best blog moment has come and gone. She said that my Online Poker is Rigged post could not be bettered. So that’s it. I’ve reached my pinnacle and everything else is downhill. 🙂 I’m still trying to decide if that’s a good thing or a bad thing.
On a side note, I finally feel vindicated! During the $330 NL event I saw this one female player who looked very familiar (yeah, right, Bill). No seriously. I knew I had seen her somewhere before and I knew it wasn’t any of the WPT Ladies Nights events so I was trying to place where I had seen her. I asked Felicia, Glenn and a few others and nobody knew where I might have seen her. Alas, I was checking out some ESPN 2004 WSOP coverage and, ta da! Tracy Phan, third place in event #20, $1000 buy-in ladies limit hold ‘em.
See, Felicia was right, this site is already going downhill 🙂
